A normal plant cell holds water in the vacuole of the cell. This large organelle also gives the cell support. Suppose a plant is

submerged in salt water. As a result, the vacuoles collapse and the leaves wilt. This condition is called plasmolysis. Which explanation do you think best describes what happens to the cells of that plant during plasmolysis?

Explain that water moves down a water potential gradient, and the salt solution has a lower water potential than the vacuole so water leaves the vacuole through osmosis

In exam Q's key points are:
- Water potential gradient
- Higher water potential in vacuole
- Leaves through osmosis

Which best explains the evolution of gymnosperm plants?
grin007 [14]
The answer to this question about the evolution of the gymnosperm plants would be C. They evolved after the seedless vascular plants.

Gymnosperms, or sometimes termed as seed plants, are classified as vascular plants and has been thriving for centuries on earth through producing seeds. They are multicotyledonous and are the opposite of flowering plants. Conifers would be the most abundant group of gymnosperms while the cycads come in second. Gingko would place last with just having one species under its name.

Tay-Sachs disease is a lethal, autosomal recessive genetic disorder. If both parents are heterozygous carriers of the disease, w
rjkz [21]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Let's assume that the allele "T" gives the normal phenotype while the recessive allele "t" imparts the disease and is lethal in homozygous condition. The genotype of each of the two carrier parents would be "Tt". A cross between Tt and Tt would give the progeny in the following genotype ratio=

Tt x Tt= 1/4 TT: 1/2 Tt: 1/4 tt

Therefore, 1/2 or 50% progeny would be the carrier for the Tay-Sachs disease.
